Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 1/7] netpoll: Improve code clarity with explicit struct size calculations
Date: Wed, 02 Jul 2025 03:06:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250702-netpoll_untagle_ip-v2-1-13cf3db24e2b@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250702-netpoll_untagle_ip-v2-0-13cf3db24e2b@debian.org>
Replace pointer-dereference sizeof() operations with explicit struct names
for improved readability and maintainability. This change:
1. Replaces `sizeof(*udph)` with `sizeof(struct udphdr)`
2. Replaces `sizeof(*ip6h)` with `sizeof(struct ipv6hdr)`
3. Replaces `sizeof(*iph)` with `sizeof(struct iphdr)`
This will make it easy to move code in the upcoming patches.
No functional changes are introduced by this patch.
